Plein Air, Meiji (Second Take)

PROMPT

POSITIVE:
Redraw the reference figure as a Meiji-era Japanese yoga oil painting in the manner of Kuroda Seiki: oil on canvas, French plein-air training applied to a Japanese sitter. Three-quarter-length standing figure keeping the reference pose, turned away with the head looking back over the shoulder. Painted outdoors in soft overcast daylight, the setting reduced to a loosely brushed suggestion of dark foliage and a warm vermilion post dissolving into broken colour, with all sharp architectural detail abandoned - no rope, no hanging paper streamers, no legible structure. Visible loaded brushwork throughout, wet-in-wet, strokes left standing and unblended, canvas weave showing through in places. The kimono is built from broken strokes of warm grey, cool lilac and pale ochre rather than a single flat tone, its pattern only suggested. The sash painted as loose slabs of maroon and burnt orange. The face is modelled with soft outdoor light, colour in the shadows rather than grey - cool violet and warm ochre half-tones - the likeness caught freely rather than laboured, the gaze steady and direct. Black hair as dark blue-green and warm brown strokes, never flat black. Restrained naturalistic palette, no hard outlines anywhere, soft transitions, slight overall warmth. No text, no signature, no border, no flat graphic areas.
